Mission

---

Our mission is to ensure that the student be able to meet his or her French speaking goals through personable, customized one-on-one instruction.

Method

---

The most important aspect of individualized lessons with a private tutor is the personal attention that can be lavished on the student.  It is a fact that we all, as individuals, have a different way to learn and
process information.  The discerning tutor can, upon learning the student's needs and becoming acquainted with his or her studying and learning process, can immediately devise the best possible way to impart knowledge through carefully elaborated lesson plans.

The object of all foreign language study is to be able to process and exchange information and express your ideas and feelings in the other language.  To that end, the student will, in the course of instruction,
practice all areas of language, from listening and speaking to reading and writing. 

We have devised general lesson plans for Beginners/Intermediate/Advanced students, based on their current level and studying needs.
